DVD-R disc to record on (

page 6, 9).

To play a DVD-R disc recorded on this recorder on
other devices, finalize the DVD-R disc on this
recorder. (

page 122)

The finalization permanently disables the disc’s
writeability. (Canceling the finalization is not possible.)

• DVD-Video finalize process cannot be canceled if

once executed on a DVD-R disc.

• On DVD-R discs recorded on other devices, you

cannot execute DVD-Video finalize process or add
recordings on this recorder.

• DVD-R discs with the method of “DVD-Video

Creation” have been alreadly executed the DVD-
Video finalize process. Therefore, they cannot be

unnecessary titles or transfer some content to a DVD-
RAM disc.

Notes

• The “Loading” icon appears in the top right of the screen after recording. This indicates that the unit is executing

the final recording process (writing managing information). Operations other than changing channels cannot be
done until this icon disappears. The time for executing this process differs depending on the recording time or
capacity of the disc.

• Note that all recording content may be deleted if the unit is disconnected from a wall outlet, or a power failure

occurs, during recording.

• If a power failure occurs within 5 minutes prior to the programed recording start time, the programmed recording

may not be executed.

Programmed recording and operational status
The recorder gives priority to programmed recordings
in every operating mode. Even if the recorder is
playing, recording or editing, or even in standby mode,
at a starting time of a programmed recording the
recorder will make itself ready or stop those
operations and start the recording.
However, “Creating a DVD-Video” (

page 112) and

“DVD-Video finalizing process” (

page 122)

operations may have priority over programmed
recordings.

When the programmed settings overlap
Before the first recording is completed, the second
program is scheduled to begin recording. When using
a DVD-RAM disc, the recording of the previous
program stops 10 seconds before the next program
starts. (If you have been recording over 9 hours on the
same drive, the current recording stops approximately
2 minutes before the next programme starts.)
When using a DVD-R/RW disc, the recording of the
previous program stops about 2 minutes before the
next program starts, to complete data process. In this
2 minutes, you cannot operate the loaded DVD-R/RW
disc.
